It’s a small clearing in the very dark sky that blocks the horizon of OL. Maxence Caqueret resumed collective training on Thursday. Peter Bosz, absent Wednesday in Brest but indeed present at the press conference Thursday afternoon, had announced it himself before the training session: “Normally, Maxence will train with the group”, said- he.
Bosz: “If Maxence can play, it can change things”
This return to the group is a nice surprise. Victim of a left knee injury on March 30 in training, when he returned from selection with the hopes, then operated on for a “meniscal lesion” by doctor Bertrand Sonnery-Cottet, Maxence Caqueret should have been absent four weeks, according to the club’s forecast. Obviously, the midfielder is a good week ahead.
This return to training does not mean that he will be able to play at the kick-off on Saturday against Montpellier. “If Maxence can play, it can change things,” said Peter Bosz when asked about the device he planned to adopt against the Héraultais.
Bosz on Lopes: “It was really serious”
On the infirmary side, returns are being made in dribs and drabs. Among the many injured who were missing Wednesday at the Francis Le Blé stadium in Brest, only “one or two” players could be fit and apply on Saturday. This could be the case in particular for Karl Toko Ekambi, victim of a calf muscle alert just before the match against Brest, Tanguy Ndombele, Jérôme Boateng or Léo Dubois.
On the other hand, Anthony Lopes will always be on the flank, as he has suffered from a crutch since the match against Strasbourg on April 10. “I saw his thigh, it was really serious,” said Peter Bosz.
